2 months shy of 1 years old!

10 months

Solid foods he's tried and likes:
banana, avocado, grapes, strawberry, blueberry, mashed potato, crackers, tomato.

Likes: green froggie to go to sleep, music, going for walks in the stroller, dogs licking his face, to talk himself to sleep, playing with his cousins, to have books read to him, likes to turn the pages in the book, to be held for a few minutes after he wakes up, to crawl really fast when the frig door or dishwasher door is open, play his leap frog music stand, peek a boo, bath time, mom's hairdryer, laughing with is mouth wide open, getting hugs from family & friends, to bang toys on the tile floor and laugh at the noise he's created, swing outside, sweet potatoes are still the favorite dish

Dislikes: the vacuum cleaner, peas without mixing with fruit, the blower to move the leaves, when he sees his milk but we're putting his PJ's on and he can't have it right then
toy telephone, push n ride scooter, sports champ toy, books, toy house while opening and closing the door

Random notes: Sleeps from around 7:30 - 7:00! Is very nosey, will turn his whole body around so he can see something, doesn't like to have his back to people (might miss something, you know), loves to play in the kitchen (he moves from frig magnets, to opening drawers, to taking out plastic bowls, to his basket of toys, to the computer desk and so on). Is good to try new foods, is into the separation anxiety stage right now, understands no, likes to give high 5's, hears the water running for his bath and will make his way to the bathroom, will move from room to room where his toy "centers" are and will play, stands up in his crib and waits for us to go get him in the AM, puts his music box on in his crib, brings smiles and laughs to those who see him, can easily move from crawling to kneeling to standing very quickly and is loved very much!
